Dhammachakra Pravartan Din, or Dharmachakra Pravartan Din and Dharmachakra Pravartana, is a Buddhist festival that takes place in India. It has deep roots in Nagpur. This day is celebrated to mark the day when Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar and his 6 lakh followers accepted the Buddhist culture and religion. Their conversion to Buddhism is one of the most important events in the life of Dr B. R. Ambedkar.
Each year, millions of Buddhist people gather at Deekshabhoomi. This event takes place on Ashoka Vijayadashami each year. People celebrate the mass conversion of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and his followers each year on this date. On this day, people from other religions convert to Buddhism and accept the principles of Buddha. According to reports, around 65,000 people converted to Buddhism in 2018, and over 67,000 people converted in 2019.
Deekshabhoomi is located in the Abhyankar Nagar area of Nagpur. It is a sacred place for Buddhist people. The word “Deeksha” means the act of ordaining, and the word “bhoomi” means a ground. In 1935, reportedly Dr. B. R. Ambedkar declared that he was a Hindu but he will not follow the caste system. His solution to abandon the caste system was to convert to Buddhism. It was the same day when Emperor Ashoka accepted Buddhism. This encouraged his followers to do the same.
